Abstract (en)
[origin: EP0399479A1] 0.05 to 0.8 parts by weight of a disinfectant for the mouth and/or throat are present in or on a matrix which contains 100 parts by weight of chewing gum base, and/or in a sugar coating enveloping the matrix. A pharmaceutical preparation of this type is used, inter alia, for preventing plaque formation. Particularly suitable as disinfectant is cetylpyridinium chloride. Additionally present in the matrix are, preferably 2 to 15 parts by weight of a lipoid substance and/or 5 to 20 parts by weight of a disintegrant on which the disinfectant is preferably applied or distributed. To produce this chewing gum, milled chewing gum base is mixed with powder particles of at least one additive which are coated with fats and/or waxes, with cooling. 0.05 to 0.8 parts by weight of a disinfectant are added to the mixture and/or to a sugar coating covering it. Subsequently tablets are compressed in cooled equipment.
